  9. What is a SBA Loan? It’s a Guaranty Loan Lender disburses their dollars Lender Services Lender Liquidates SBA’s guaranty offsets lender’s risk

  10. PREMISE OF SBA LENDING “On SBA-guaranteed loans, the cash flow of the Small Business Applicant is the primary source of repayment, not the liquidation of collateral. Thus, if the lender’s financial analysis demonstrates that the Small Business Applicant lacks reasonable assurance of repayment in a timely manner from the cash flow of the business, the loan request must be declined, regardless of the collateral available.”

  16. Eligible Use of Proceeds SBA loans may be used to: • Purchase machinery, equipment, fixtures, buildingsand land for business; • Finance receivables and augment working capital; • Refinance existing debt - including credit card debt (with compelling reason); • Finance seasonal lines of credit; and/or • Expand, renovate facilities; • Construct commercial buildings. • Change of ownership/purchase of a business • Most legitimate business purposes

  17. Debt Refinancing Criteria A lender may refinance an existing non-SBA guaranteed loan or borrower debt from another lender if: The existing loan no longer meets the needs of the applicant (for example if the current loan is a term loan and a revolver is needed) • Requires “substantial benefit” to applicant • Looks to 10% improvement in monthly payments (P & I) • SBA requires copies of all notes that will be refinanced • Demand, interest only, balloon notes will automatically meet substantial benefit test

  18. Debt Refinancing Criteria Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) or Credit Card Debt that was used for business purposes. The borrower must certify that the amount being refinanced was used exclusively for business purposes and provide appropriate documentation, such as a copy of the note and/or current loan statement, to demonstrate that the debt was, in fact, used for business purposes. For example, a sole proprietor may demonstrate that the debt was used for business purposes by providing a copy of the note and documentation that shows the debt is reflected on the business balance sheet and/or the interest deduction is reported on the Schedule “C” not the Schedule “A” of the proprietor’s tax return. If the interest deduction reported on the Schedule C includes multiple debts, then the applicant must provide a copy of the appropriate IRS Form 1098 related to the debt being refinanced

  19. Refinance • Refinancing Same Institution Debt • Late is defined as any payment made 29 days beyond the due date or maturity • Transcript for past 36 months or life of loan (whichever is less) must be included showing due dates & when payments were received as part of the credit analysis • Refinancing an SBA Guaranteed Loan • Evidence must be retained in the file showing the existing lender was unwilling to approve an increase in the loan amount or a second loan and/or the lender is unwilling or unable to modify the current payment schedule • The Borrower or the new lender may obtain this documentation • Refinancing an existing 504 using 7a • A 7a loan can be used to refinance an existing 504 as long as it meets refi requirements PLUS either: • Both the 3rd Party & 504 loan are being refinanced OR • The 3rd Party loan has been paid in full & the 504 needs to be refinanced as part of a larger transaction to facilitate an expansion or renovation to the project property • 504 pre-payment penalties CANNOT be waived

  20. Ineligible Use of Proceeds • To repay delinquent IRS withholding taxes, sales taxes or similar funds held in trust. • To provide or refinance funds used for payments, distributions, or loans to Associates of the Applicant, except payment of ordinary compensation for services rendered at a fair and reasonable rate. • Relocation of the business out of a community if there will be a net reduction of one-third of its jobs or a substantial increase in unemployment in any area of the country unless the relocation is for key economic reasons crucial to the applicant and the benefits to the applicant and the receiving community outweigh the negative impact on the community from which the applicant is moving. • Community improvements, such as curbs and sidewalks, in excess of 5 percent of construction proceeds of this loan.

  21. Real Estate Acquisition • If loan proceeds are to be used to purchase or construct real estate, we look for “owner occupancy” • Eligible small business must occupy 51% + of an existing facility or • 60% of a newly constructed facility on day one, with expansion to 80% in 10 years

  22. Determination of Eligibility Lenders should be guided by the Eligibility Questionnaire which is part of the loan application In doubt? If you are comfortable, but not 100% sure… • Print the page from the SOP that lead you to your decision and include it in the file. • Ask 7aQuestions@SBA.gov. Include their answer in the file. • Call us, we will research the SOP and reiterate its contents – not make a determination. • Use conventional 7(a).

  23. Credit Elsewhere Acceptable factors that demonstrate an identifiable weakness in the credit or exceed policy limits of the lender include, among others: a) The business needs a longer maturity than the lender’s policy permits (for example, the business needs a loan that is not on a demand basis); b) The requested loan exceeds either the lender’s legal lending limit or policy limit regarding the amount that it can lend to one customer; c) The lender’s liquidity depends upon selling the guaranteed portion of the loan on the secondary market; d) The collateral does not meet the lender’s policy requirements; e) The lender’s policy normally does not allow loans to new businesses or businesses in the applicant’s industry; and/or f) Any other factors relating to the credit that, in the lender’s opinion, cannot be overcome except for the guaranty. These other factors must be specifically documented in the loan file. The lender must certify that credit is not otherwise available by signing the Lender Official block on the appropriate application form.

  24. Financing-What does SBA look for? Owners and operators w/ good credit & character Feasible business plan Management expertise and commitment necessary for success Sufficient funds, including SBA guaranteed loan, to operate the business on a sound financial basis Adequate equity investment in the business Sufficient collateral, however, SBA is a cash flow lender and not a collateral lender.

  29. AFFILIATES Concerns and entities are affiliates of each other when one controls or has the power to control the other, or a third party or parties controls or has the power to control both. It does not matter whether control is exercised, so long as the power to control exists. SBA considers factors such as ownership, management, previous relationships with or ties to another concern, and contractual relationships, in determining whether affiliation exists. Control may be affirmative or negative. Negative control includes, but is not limited to, instances where a minority shareholder has the ability, under the concern's charter, by-laws, or shareholder's agreement, to prevent a quorum or otherwise block action by the board of directors or shareholders. Affiliation may be found where an individual, concern, or entity exercises control indirectly through a third party. In determining whether affiliation exists, SBA will consider the totality of the circumstances, and may find affiliation even though no single factor is sufficient to constitute affiliation. ~ page 92 www.ecfr.gov 13.121.103

  30. 4506-T SBA’s Tax Verification process is to determine if: The Small Business Applicant filed business tax returns; and The Small Business Applicant’s financial statements provided as part of the application agree with the business tax returns submitted to the IRS. Please note: for loans up to $350,000. verification must be done prior to loan submission For a sole proprietorship, the lender must verify the Schedule C. For a change of ownership, the lender must verify the seller’s business tax returns or a sole proprietor’s Schedule C. Where there is an acquisition of a division or a segment of an existing business, other forms of verification may be used in lieu of the 4506-T (e.g. Sales tax payment records). If the business has been operating for less than 3 years, lender must obtain the information for all years in operation.

  31. Personal Financial Statement • Can use SBA 413 or lender form • Must be less than 90 days old • Must be submitted for all officers, directors, principals and 20% owners, spouses and children's assets.

  32. Liquid Resource Test • Total Financing Package (TFP) – includes SBA loan(s), equity injection, and any other financing • Applies to each 20% owner (including spouse and dependent children)

  33. WHEN TFP IS: <$250,000 – 2 x TFP or $100,000 whichever is the greater >$250,001 < $500,000 – 1 ½ x TFP or $500,000 whichever is the greater >$500,000 – 1 x TFP or $750,000 whichever is the greater Once the exemption is determined, it is subtracted from the liquid assets. If the result is positive, that amount must be injected into the project.

  34. Liquid Assets Include: • Cash or Cash equivalents including: savings accounts, CDs, stocks, bonds or similar assets • Cash surrender value of life insurance DOES NOT INCLUDE: Retirement accounts or closely held non-marketable stocks or equity in real estate

  39. If the lender uses its own note form, the lender must ensure that the note is legally enforceable and assignable, has a stated maturity and is not payable on demand. In addition, if the lender uses its own note form, the note must include the following language: “When SBA is the holder, this Note will be interpreted and enforced under federal law, including SBA regulations.

(not be confused with the Small Business Predictive Score (SBPS) used in lender portal. The minimum credit score is based on the lower end of the risk profile of the current SBA portfolio and may be adjusted up or down from time to time. The minimum score will be posted on SBA website. The current minimum SLA credit score is 140

  46. Credit Scores Will Predict Risk More Accurately and Simply Than Complex Underwriting • FICO/D&B’s LiquidCredit scores use commercial and consumer data to predict purchase risk. • FICO/D&B developed the suite using loan, lease, and card data from lenders nationwide. • Small business credit scores are compensatory. • Criteria do not have hard-cutoffs, and scores do not always use all criteria or data sources. Small Business Credit Scores Accurately Predict Purchase Below 140: 21% Above 140: 3.7% Source: SBA Loan/Lender Monitoring System. Sample Users of Small Business Credit Scores This Score Suite is an Industry-Standard Decisioning Tool • Banks across the country use the suite for evaluating borrower risk. • Under the new Small Loan Advantage, SBA will only approve loans scored above 140.
